cannot describe how much I hate the tendency to speak about things like internalized homophobia or compulsory heterosexuality as though they're like, medical disorders one is afflicted by instead of descriptors for the way aspects of oppressive systems are internalized and often aggressively self-enforced

I’m just imagining a grateful Keyleth, at the end of all this moon shit when the baddies have been brought to justice, approaching Laudna and Imogen with pretty much any reward but ultimately being like “You don’t have to choose it but… I can bring her all the way back.. you can grow old together.”
She would know she’s probably likely projecting, but offers them something no one can off her 😭

Hc that Andrew buys those jolly rancher hard candies all the time and is constantly sucking on them. Like, it takes him two days to finish a bag, so he buys five bags at a time. He has them in his bags, in his pockets, in Neil's pockets. It's not uncommon to see him pull one out during practice, like, on the court. He'll just loudly unwrap it and plop it in his mouth and tuck the wrapper into his glove or something to dispose of later. Everyone has given up on telling him to stop, despite the clear choking hazard.

Please, I not only desperately need Halsin with a baby, but I also need him to have separation anxiety that he is confused/ashamed at. He's seen so much- he lost his family, the Shadow Curse, he's been kidnapped so many times, he's seen children suffer in the city, he's seen orphans. He's dealt with it well until now but now that he has his own he's responsible for, he's terrified to set them down for a single moment lest they be lost forever
*inhales* 🥺
That's heart wrenching, but makes a lot of sense. He also nearly lost Thaniel of whom he'd grown to see as a child of his, so I could absolutely see that situation as an anxiety amplifier. Definitely something he'd need to work through and keep an open communication about.
(Also I headcanon that Wood Elves carry their babies on their backs in wrapped slings so it leaves their hands free to climb trees and hunt and take care of their greenery and all that fun stuff, but also they want their children to grow up with a close connection to the world around them and carry them like that until the kids are big enough where they can just hold on themselves - so keeping the kiddos close is just instinctual for him. I'm just thinking in this thread of someone asking Halsin where the baby is, and he's like: "...They are with me." "No they aren't I don't see them." And he just smiles sheepishly and turns around and ta-dah! There they are.)

Went through my kith and kin tag after that last post and once again lying on my floor thinking about. vex snarling at vax about his judgement being swayed by a pretty face-
(another person vax is brave enough to love, even if its dangerous. looking for the good and the kindness and the humanity among the darkness, trying to bring it forward, let vex experience it, even when it can leave him bleeding)-
and vax snarling at vex about her judgement being swayed by her desperation to be accepted-
(another time vex sees a way to secure safety and security and approval, which is safety and security, in a different form. for her, her and vax and trinket and everything she loves, safe in one place, where they can belong, they can stay)-
and. oogh.
Holding these twins in my hands. squishing them like playdough. one of them fights desperately to find the kindness and good and light even when its a fools errand. leaves himself open and hurt for a little bit of light. if it keeps vex safe, happier. one of them counting and calculating and running and cruel because the world demands it. keeps the counter going and going and does the hard things if it keeps vax whole, and okay. one close range and one long.
they'll hurt each other if it keeps the other whole. they'll gladly get hurt if it keeps the other safe. the world is harsh, and they are surviving. what the fuck. theyre such a fucked up pair. they love each other so much.
